Noosa, Queensland Chili Pepper “Purple Tiger” is an amazingly beautiful small purple chilli plant. This extremely attractive plant produces small tear drop shaped fruit turning purple when ripe. The foliage is often tri-coloured, green, purple and white. Peppers are somewhat larger than regular jalapeño, but with the same thick walls and fiery heat. Great for use in salsas and would be very attractive pickled with a mixture of other jalapeño colours This unusual ornamental plant will lighten up even the dullest greenhouse. The fruits can be used to spice up many dishes and are a good source of vitamin C. seedaholic.com 30/31 Mauve May, 12 Months/365 Days in Colour Archive Airings AA75 Leaves
